Someone started a thread about profanity in movies..

After one reply it was shut down as a moderator decided that "we are not going to discuss profanity in movies" !!

I guess the Junta power trip is rubbing off on some ??

This post will get deleted and I'll get a spank but let people discuss what they want....

Section 55 maybe, but I cannot see a logical reason for closing that thread, the mod needs to explain him/herself

How about smoking in movies?  I find that offensive dammit.

Careful, we'll all be called into TVF for attitude adjustment :)

It’s the question of do characters in movies affect behavior more than they reflect it in society

Of course movies influence (youth especially), this is why smoking vs profanity would be worse as. an influence.

The mod in question did have a valid point, if you don't like it then switch it off but we are all adults and can discuss what we choose.

Some people are affected by what they see on TV, some just see it as it is "entertainment"..

The use of profanities has increased over the last few years but it won't kill anyone..

The use of “f!!k you”, often deemed to have become an almost offhand expletive in some societies and heard regularly in movies; especially those from the USA, can have dire consequences when used in TH
